Predict the Winner of the 2017 PGA Championship with The Sand Trap and Snell Golf! WHO do you think will WIN the 2017 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow and what SCORE will they shoot? PLEASE READ the rules thoroughly. Each contest people are disqualified for simple mistakes. To enter, post your answer right here in this thread along with the bold that says why YOU choose to play the Snell ball that you prefer to play. For example, "I expect a lot out of my golf ball, so I play the Snell My Tour Ball for the best performance I can get." Note as always that you are NOT predicting who will finish 1st, 2nd, and 3rd; you are picking three players to win and the score(s) they will shoot. The first choice carries tremendous weight (see the rules below for more), while the second and third choices exist simply in case we don't have a winner selected by anyone's first selection. The Prizes First Place One first-place winner will win a prize pack from Snell Golf that includes: Two Dozen MTB golf balls. A Snell Golf hat. A Snell Golf towel. MY TOUR BALL is our 3-piece, tour caliber golf ball engineered to provide outstanding tee to green performance, with a mission to enhance scoring for golfers of all skill levels. The Core has been developed with a very low compression, soft feel, with high velocity to help with ball speed regardless of swing speed and creates low driver spin rates for longer distances. The Mantle layer works on longer shots to keep control of the spin, and works with the thin soft cast urethane cover on shorter irons and chip shots to create higher spin rates for better control into the green. The Cover layer is made of a thermoset cast urethane,tour proven cover. This technology allows very thin covers for better short game spin control, and is very soft and durable. Second Place The second-place winner will win one dozen MTB golf balls. The Rules - All qualifying entries must be received no later than Wednesday, August 9, 2017 at Midnight eastern time zone (New York City). - Winners will be notified within 48 hours of the completion of The 2017 PGA Championship and will have 48 hours after notifications are sent to claim their prize. - You must have a shipping address within the 50 United States of America or Canada. - You must be a registered member of The Sand Trap in good standing. - You must be aged eighteen (18) or older as of the date of entry. - Your answer must include 1) the visible and bold text as described above, 2) the FULL NAME (first and last, for the purposes of proper and unique identification) and 3) the score in relation to par (+2, -4, E, etc.) of the player you are predicting to win the 2017 PGA Championship, as well as your 2nd and 3rd choices (same rules apply - full name, score in relation to par). - The Winner will be selected as the first person in the contest to correctly pick both the winner and the score. The runner up will be the second person to correctly pick the winner and score or be the first person to pick closest to the winner/score. - Two (2) entries per person and per household. The second entry is only allowed the week of the PGA Championship (Monday, August 7 through Wednesday, August 9). Any additional entries or modifications invalidate all entries. - If we suspect fraud of any kind - suspicious multiple entries, for example - we reserve the right to award the prize to the next valid entry in the order established above. Details regarding the green, underlined rule: It's very simple. The winner is the first person (who satisfies the other rules) to choose the correct winner and score with their first choice. If nobody picks the correct score, the winner is the first person to have the closest score for the correct winner. If nobody chooses the correct winner with their first choice, we repeat the process for everyone's second choice, and then the third. In other words, if someone chooses Joe Smith for their first choice - at any score - and you choose him for your second choice, you've wasted your second choice. Think of your picks like draft picks. Your second and third choices should be someone you don't think will be chosen in the first "round." Winners will have 48 hours to claim their prize after being notified.. Again, please read the details about how to go about entering the contest and picking players. Don't pick top ten players for your 2nd and 3rd picks. Example for this contest would look like this: I play the Get Sum by Snell Golf because it helps me "get sum" of my buddy's money! 1) Old Tom Morris -3 2) Francis Ouimet +2 3) Gene Sarazen -5

Help Design a Putter Cover, Win Your Own!
iacas posted a topic in Balls, Carts/Bags, Apparel, Gear, Etc.
Long story short… http://www.girlygolfer.com makes custom putter headcovers, and I'm writing a review of the process and product. I've designed one headcover for @NatalieB but would like to design a second. Between 5SK, LSW, Evolvr, Golf Evolution, TST, Analyzr… and one or two other things that I'm probably forgetting (I volunteer for WPGA and am associated now with the USGA, perhaps…), I can't figure out how to design the second headcover. So I'm going to have a contest. The process is simple. Download the template: http://www.girlygolfer.com/pdf/DCC-BladePutter-Template.pdf. Design your idea for a headcover for me. Color it, etc. Submit your idea by November 10th by posting it in this thread. I'll judge your submissions and, if it wins, you'll get to design your own custom putter headcover courtesy of myself and TST. -

http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/mar/28/rory-mcilroy-par-three-competition-masters-augusta I can see that. And though I watched the coverage the first year, I've not watched it since. It's boring, there's too much fawning over guys who play worse golf than I do at this point in their lives, and I get tired real quick of watching the kids running around. I can see how it could be a huge pain in the butt to a current competitor, and simultaneously really enjoyed by past-their-prime guys. What do you think?
